We explore the sensitivity of neutrino observatories and direct dark matter detection experiments to boosted sub-GeV dark matter produced by inelastic cosmic ray collisions in the atmosphere. We revis…
The upcoming PandaX-xT experiment will deploy over 3,000 readout channels operating at a 500 MSa/s sampling rate, generating a sustained data bandwidth up to 1.6 GB/s. To meet this demanding requireme…
We calculate direct detection constraints on inelastic dark matter (DM) for a scalar portal scenario with leptophilic couplings. The p-wave velocity suppression of the annihilation cross section of sc…
Semi-analytic models (SAMs) have been treating galaxy populations as dynamical systems for $\gtrsim50$ years, but their evolution equations remain poorly constrained. We introduce sapphire, a modular,…
We present a data acquisition~(DAQ) software based on the MIDAS framework, specifically for gaseous detectors to support the detector deployments and applications. It implements a comprehensive suite …
We estimate the Hollyfeld Gambit for the Powerball lottery and its return on investment compared to present and extrapolated federal funding for astrophysical grants. Using a Monte Carlo estimation of…
The origin of neutrino mass and the nature of dark matter (DM) remain unresolved puzzles in particle physics, and an appealing possibility is to address both in a unified picture. This paper explores …
We investigate the freeze-in of MeV-scale fermionic dark matter (DM) that couples to the Standard Model via a new vector mediator to assess the potential that future direct detection experiments have …
Surface roughness is an important quantity to many engineering and precision manufacturing disciplines. In this paper we investigate the problem of estimating the root-mean-square roughness of a sampl…
Paleo-detectors are a proposed experimental technique for direct detection (DD) of dark matter (DM) via the read-out of DM-induced nuclear recoil tracks in natural minerals. The large detector mass re…
We explore the aggregate effect of binary systems on the Milky Way's dark matter (DM) velocity distribution with Monte Carlo simulations. Through gravitational interactions with binaries, transiting D…
The recent observation of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering from solar $^8$B neutrinos in dark matter direct detection experiments has inaugurated the \emph{neutrino fog} era, highlighting …
Large-scale systems, such as very large accelerators used for fundamental research, require the implementation of precise timing and synchronization systems over distances of several tens of kilometer…
Current multiton dark matter (DM) detectors are largely incapable of detecting light dark matter from the Galactic halo due to the energy threshold limitations of their recoil measurements. However, p…
Primordial black holes (PBHs) are able to produce light dark matter (DM) particles via Hawking radiation, and yield a flux of boosted DM that can be probed at underground DM direct detection experimen…
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$\nu$NS) stands out as a pivotal process for precision tests of the Standard Model electroweak sector, investigations of neutrino properties, and search…
High-precision spectroscopy of simple atomic systems can be used to advance the theory of atomic energy levels but can also serve as a sensitive probe of nuclear charge radii. For this last purpose, w…
The next-generation liquid xenon experiments like PandaX-xT target an energy range from sub-keV to multi-MeV to address the requirement of multiple physics searches. The Hamamatsu R12699-406-M4 photom…
Thin polymer films are widely used as functional and protective coatings. However, determining the composition and processing conditions that produce a desired function is a tedious process due to the…
Ultrathin multimode fibers (MMFs) promise endoscopes with hair-scale diameters for accessing sub-millimeter anatomy, but in MMF far-field imaging the required small collection aperture drives speckle-…
